Tarek Aït Meddour is a choreographer and performer with a career rich in multiple encounters and demanding teachings which have led him to shape a precise and mixed dance.
Coming from martial arts, he trained at the National School of Arts in Créteil then at the International Dance Academy in Paris.
After making his debut at the Paris Opera alongside Laurence Fanon, at the Théâtre du Châtelet with Robert Carsen, then with Kim Brandstrup at the Royal Opera in London, he joined the Centre Chorégraphique National de Nantes under the direction of Claude Brumachon and Benjamin Lamarche.
He then collaborated with the companies KH with Karim Khouader, Cie Black Sheep with Johanna Faye and Saïdo Lehlouh, Cie Makiato with Tatiana Seguin, Cie Ezio Schiavulli, and encountered the work of Giuliano Peparini and Benoît Swan Pouffer.
More recently, he worked on the creation of the baroque opera Alcione, alongside Raphaëlle Boitel, through physical theatre mixed with circus arts.
He also works under the direction of Philippe Giraudeau at the Paris Opera and the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, as well as with Marie-Ève Signeyrole for an original creation for the Paris Chamber Orchestra - Baby Doll.
He is the founder of the Colégram company, created in 2016, which he designed both as a creative tool and as a vehicle for teaching and sharing his research. Drawing on academic disciplines and urban influences, the company develops a hybrid, emotional, and committed contemporary dance. Regularly invited to serve as a competition jury, he also maintains a close connection with teaching and transmission.
